I’m shocked that I haven’t seen one protest yet. Is the media suppressing them? If there aren’t any, why?

    I live in the SF Bay Area. There’s a website that was set up to track protests (https://www.actiontogetherbayarea.org/calendar). There are more than a dozen today and more than two dozen tomorrow. I think generally the larger protests are at state capitols and Washington DC, which are simply too far for many people to go to. Sacramento is our state capitol and that’s about a 1.5 hour drive from here. CA is a big state, Sacramento would probably be an 8-hour drive from Los Angeles.

    Also, as others have mentioned, the protests don’t get a lot of media coverage.
